      <p>- Presenting <b>Blenxy</b>! a <b>Blender 2.79b application template</b> that aims to be like a comfort zone for <b>SMG modeling</b> (<code>Blen</code> for <b>Blender</b> and <code>xy</code> from <b>Galaxy</b>). It isn't much but honest work <b>>:]</b></p>

      <br>

      <hr id="feature">
      <h2>Features</h2>
      <hr>

      <p><b>1)</b> <b>Custom DAE Exporter</b> for <b>BMD/BDL</b> conversion with <b>SuperBMD</b>.</p>
      <p><b>2)</b> <b>Custom DAE Importer</b> for <b>DAEs</b> that come from <b>SuperBMD</b>.</p>
      <p><b>3)</b> <b>CSV Exporter</b> for the <b>BCK animation type</b> to use with the <b>J3D Animation Editor</b> program (<i>linear interpolation is the only one supported</i>).</p>
      <p><b>3)</b> <b>CSV Importer</b> for the <b>BCK animation type</b> from files that come from the <b>J3D Animation Editor</b> program (<i>linear interpolation is the only one supported</i>).</p>
      <p><b>4)</b> Reference axis <code>SMG axis</code> shows on all 3d models to guide the visualization of a mesh in the Super Mario Galaxy reference system.</p>
